Transnational Land Grabs and Restitution in an Age of the (De-)Militarised New Scramble for Africa

A Pan African Socio-Legal Perspective

One of the fundamental challenges in deconstructing, rethinking
and remaking the world from a Pan African vantage point is that some
captives have tended to delight in the warmth of the [imperial]
predator’s mouth. In other words, some captives forget that the imperial
predator’s mouth gets warm because empire is eating and heating up from
prey on the continent. (De-)Militarisation,
Transnational Land Grabs and Restitution in an Age of the New Scramble
for Africa: A Pan African Socio-Legal Perspective is a book that knocks on key aspects relating to land, militarisation, a PostAfrican World Order and a chaotic Post-God World Order,
which require critical scholarly and policy attention in the quest to
free Africa from centuries-old imperial depredations. The book carefully
navigates the imperial entrapments which are designed to focus African
attention only on decolonising African minds without also engaging in
the [imperially more unsettling] decolonisation of African
materialities.
